However, the former Santos man might have his work cut out trying to convince the 24-year-old to join him in Spain.
Coutinho signed a new five-year deal at Anfield in January and he claimed at the time he had no desire to leave the Reds.
"We feel at home in this city, we feel a part of this city. It is a very important day for me, my wife and my daughter," Coutinho said.
"I am happy and everyone is happy at home."
